Food Pantry Coordinator Needed!!
Food Pantry Coordinator Needed!
Fred and Shirley Hayes have served as the Food Pantry Coordinators for FUMC Melrose for over 13 years, but they decided it is time to resign. So the church needs a new volunteer to take up the role. Luckily Fred has offered to help orient the new volunteer.
The primary task is transferring the donated food from the church to the First Baptist Church at the corner. So it does involve some physical labor. But it is a great project that provides direct help to those in need. Fred notes that when he and Shirley took on the role the Hope Food Pantry fed over 100 families. Now it serves over 300 families.
I am optimistic that others in our church, perhaps a family, will volunteer to continue this service. To volunteer, please call the church office (781-662-7060) or email the Leadership Team at fumc-leadership-team@googlegroups.com.
Thanks to Fred and Shirley for their years of service!
Cory Allen, Chair, Leadership Team
